The scale 0.5 in : 6 ft, means that
any distance of 0.5 in on paper, represents 6 ft in reality
for example:
0.5*2= 1(in) represents 6*2=12 (ft)
0.5*4= 2(in) represents 6*4=24 (ft)
0.5*10=5(in) represents 6*10=60 (ft) and so on...
Let the wall be x (in) in the drawing:
0.5 (in) represents 6 (ft),
x (in) represents 30 (ft)
----------------------------------------
thus x = (0.5*30)/6 = 15/6= 2.5 (in)
Answer: 2.5 in
-1, -4 because 2+3(-1)= -1 and 4+8(-1)= -4
5=1/2v-3
5=1/2v
+3 +3
8=1/2v
/1/2 /1/2
16=v
Basically each side of the triangle represents a square on each which then makes the hypotenuse the largest square. Now, the area of a square is formulated by (1 side)² . Pythagorean theorem says that the area of the largest square is the sum of the 2 smaller square which is why the formula is a² + b² = c².
The fraction is 2/6, because he has six ties which gives you the denominator of six and 2 are red. to simplify 1/3
